GADDO GADDO

Nowadays Indonesian food is fairly common in California, but when offered at Kurt's Diamond Sutra Restaurant back in 1970 it was quite rare. Here's Kurt's recipe (via his alter-ego Jose Que, the fourth-world dishwasher at the Diamond Sutra) and treatise on GADDO GADDO, (sent to Helen Civelli Brown, Food Editor at the SF Examiner newspaper), a traditional, Indonesian, chile-infused peanut sauce that's tossed with greens. His discourse veers into matters distinctly non-recipe, including the avenue of Tantric enlightenment.
